Then no more US aircraft until the French, Italians, and Soviets get better representation in the air?   ;)

I totally agree with that statement. As far as vehicles go I would like to see the KV-1, Churchill, Comet,Cromwell and even a Char B1.

Gyrene, only difference was the gun, same armor, same turret, same engine.

You keep pretending the gun is a minor thing.

For scenario and special event use (which is the main reason to add an L'24 right now), we can disable certian loadouts and weapons. It would work much better than the Panzer IV H we have now, and about as well as an Ausf. D.


And if I'm the type to fly 109E's, M8s, M4(75)'s, Ki-61's, and other less-than-stellar rides, why wouldn't I take the L'24? Would be funny as hell to take out someone's Panther tank with a low velocity 75mm round from the side.

thats more than easy to do...up a M4/75 (use HE) or a LVT-4 and shove 2 rounds into the panthers side from 1k away. simple as that.

difference between what, the ausf f and f2? true. between the ausf d and f2? not true.

what's in the game now, the ausf h? it has the same gun as the ausf f2 and g models, armor is thicker in certain areas but if you're talking special event substitutions, the one in game now is perfect all the way back to 1942. the ausf d would be the best gap filler between pre/early war model panzer iv's if you're going to ask for one. wouldn't be bad to have a panzer iii ausf j with choice of short barreled kwk l/42 and long barreled kwk39 l/60.

Yes, the F1 and F2. But the gun is not the same between it an the Ausf. H. The H has an L'48 instead of an L'43 as on the F2 and early G models. Preformance was slightly better with the L'48 but it wasn't a huge increase.

And yes, the main reason for adding a Panzer IV Ausf. F would be for special events use. Particularly in N Afrika setups where we'd have Panzer IV's facing M4's. Would make it much more realistic (and fun) if the M4's can kill the Panzers as easily as the panzers can kill the M4.


+1 to the Panzer III. Nice sexy tank right there  :D.
